Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine mashed banana, peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.
Add quick oats and mix until well incorporated. Fold in chocolate chips or nuts if using.
Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet and gently flatten with the back of a spoon.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
You can freeze them for a longer shelf life — just thaw before eating.
